Johnnie's is a collection of memories for all. Personally autographed pictures and genuine memorabilia of your favorite movie stars, politicians, athletes and musicians. Casual, upscale dining in a great location. Set on the side of the "Old West End" just blocks away from North Station, the TD Bank North Garden, historic Faneuil Hall and Quincy Market. The decor consists of a combination of light and dark woods, copper, brass and luxurious leather with huge floor to ceiling windows that you must see to appreciate. The menu consists of contemporary American classics with various, multi-ethnic influences. We open at 4pm every Tuesday through Saturday for dinner,as well as our famous Reggae brunch from 11am to 3pm on Sundays. We are also open Mondays with Garden events and we do open early for afternoon games and concerts. For reservations of groups larger than 6, please call to check for availability.

    West Side Johnnies is a hidden jewel near the Boston Garden. Great dinner, at a low price. Great service. No wait, even within an hour before the World Champion Celtics tipped off against the LA Clippers.

    Food was great and service was fantastic. Our server recommended us getting our food order in quickly because he knew we were going to the game and they were going to get swamped and the kitchen would be slammed
